Greetings
check to see if there is a local real estate investors club in your area. there you can find agents, investors, lenders & contractors (typically with connections) who will be eager to work with you.

If you are the buyer and paying the inspector, yes, you should go to the inspection. Trying to decipher what is inspected and recommended vs being there and have it pointed out to you so that you understand completely, I find it easier to understand when you are present... more

Good evening.
Charlotte winters are short and generally cool, beginning in December as daytime temperatures fall steadily with Dec-Mar averages ranging 41 to 51Â°F. Charlotte is protected by the Appalachian Mountains on the western end of the state and cold fronts from Canada and the Gulf of Mexico rarely make it past these tall mountains. On nights during Charlotte's winter months, residents can experience periods of frosty weather and infrequent snow flurries of a few inches which rarely settle, melting within a few days. While the annual average snowfall is 5.5 inches, somewhat more frequent are ice storms and sleet mixed in with rain - "wintery mix" as the news terms it.

The average annual daytime temperatures in Charlotte are around 71Â°F (21Â°C). Charlotte's mild climate (KÃ¶ppen subtropical climate Cfa) has four distinct seasons and is characterized by mild winters, balmy summer evenings and long periods of sunny weather with about 40 inches of rainfall spread fairly evenly throughout the year. It is a great place to live - mild winters and not as humid as Florida. If you appreciate an answer, please give thumbs up.

I sure do hope you and your husband move here! Charlotte is an amazing city, and is only growing!

The packages that new builders are offering for new construction are as advertised! Typically the price you see online will be the base price (which includes the finished, livable home, microwave, stove, blinds, etc) and you can do a few additions in there. Just count on adding between $5-$10k in the purchase price for all the sweet additions you would want! But overall, it isn't a gimmick or a bait and switch.

If you would like, shoot me an email or call/text me and I will send you some ideas as to what I'm talking about. Look forward to working for you :)

If the seller already initiated the deed in lieu process, they may not be able to stop it. It really depends on where exactly they are in the process and if the seller is willing to work with you as far as contacting their lender/foreclosure attorney to stop/delay the process.

My best advice is to get in contact with a real estate attorney who can advise you on the foreclosure process.

If there is an agent present showing your home it is not at all necessary. Any questions the buyers may have will go through their agent back directly to you.

Not only that, speaking from a buyers point of view, when I was looking at homes for myself to purchase, sometimes the owners of some homes would follow me around making it uncomfortable and crowded in smaller rooms. It became an overkill, with the owner throwing every bit of information down my throat, when I never asked for it in the first place and it frustrated me.

If you are home for the showings, just sit back and let them look around with their agent. If they have questions, just be present to answer them.... more

The internet is not always correct in reporting the foreclosures. I live in the Ballantyne area and at the moment I am not seeing a lot of foreclosures. If you are referring to commute time to uptown Charlotte, you are looking at about 20-30 minutes in traffice. Give me a call or email me. Would love to tell you more about the area.

The best way to find out information about the crime in a community, is to contact the local police department. Unfortunately, as real estate agents, we are limited as to what we can and cannot say about crime, safety, etc.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call or email me!

Good afternoon, Mike:
The process of patenting land in North Carolina was not complex. Anyone wanting to patent land submitted an application (also called a land entry) to a land office. The land officer then issued a warrant. Land officers included the secretary of state (1669â€“1776), the agents of Earl Granville (1748â€“76), or the county entry taker (1778â€“present). The warrant was taken to a surveyor who surveyed the land and sketched a plat (map) of the claim. The plat was then filed in the land office or, after 1777, recorded by the county register of deeds, and a patent for the land was issued and recorded. Land grants and related indexes are available at the North Carolina State Archives (see [North Carolina Archives, Libraries, and Societies]). If you write to the archives, furnish the full name of the grantee and the county in which the grant was made. Detailed instructions for requesting information by mail, fax or online, visit this section of the archiveâ€™s website www.archives.ncdcr.gov/mail.htm. The Granville grants and other miscellaneous papers have been indexed and can be accessed by MARS, a database of the North Carolina State Archives online at mars.archives.ncdcr.gov/BasicSearch.aspx; the Search Room at the archives has a card catalog of grants of deeds. The FHL has this collection on 522 reels of microfilm. If you appreciate an answer, please give thumbs up. For the most helpful answer, please say thanks with a best answer click.... more

Unfortunately, we cannot (as Realtors) speak of crime stats relating to safety. You can check this on cmpd.org's website. I suggest that you drive this area during different times of the day and on weekend. If I can be of further assistance, please let me know.

withrow downs is a subdivison that was designed for first time home buyers. I have had a few homes listed in there and sold and a couple of buyers that looked inthere as well and one that bought. Like any other area of the country it got hit with the market recession. parts of Charlotte helpd out longer than other parts and since that neighborhood is newer construction, I think the home owers worked harder to keep their homes maybe than other older neighborhoods.

Also check the information you are looking at. There are two withrow downs. One is being finsihed by Ryan homes (which based on lexington is the one i think you are talking about) and the other one is withrow downs II which is a lower priced starter neighborhood that has families looking concnerned with the proximity to the lowes motor speedway and making it harder to sell in there. That one I know becuase the builder has dramatically cut the price of the homes from when they first started is making it almost impossible for anyone to resell their home in there if they did not put a large down payment down....
